The sound of roaring artillery fire, the rotation of the pinch engine, and the screams of soldiers from time to time, played a hell march together.

The French command, looking at the increasing casualties, could not help but tremble.

After sorting out his thoughts, McMahon forced himself to calm down. He knew that he could not panic now. If he could not deal with it calmly, France would be finished.

As one of the founders of the Second French Empire, McMahon's feelings for this country even exceeded his own life.

"You all know what happened on the front line. The most urgent task now is to find a way to deal with the enemy's armored forces. Only by solving them can the great France have a future.

From now on, the fate of the empire is in our hands. Behind us is home, and now we have no way out.

If you don’t want the war to burn our hometown and don’t want to see your wife and children wandering around, then keep the enemy out of the country!

Time is not waiting for me, the international situation is getting worse and worse, and there is not much time left for France. You are all elites in the French army, and now the responsibility for dealing with the enemy's armored forces is on your head."

It’s impossible to accept old age. The cruel reality taught McMahon a deep lesson. Today, with the rapid development of military technology, traditional tactics and tactics have been swept into the garbage dump and are increasingly unable to keep up with the times.

For example, McMahon, who had just emerged, used the method of dealing with the cavalry to fight, and the result was naturally terrible.

You can deal with cavalry, shoot people or horses; when you encounter armored tanks, ordinary bullets can only tickle them, and there is no threat at all.

His past experience was not reliable, so McMahon had to brainstorm and find solutions.

"Marson, after these days of fighting, we found that the enemy's armored troops were not afraid of bullet shooting, and to destroy them, they had to use artillery.

Because of the low hit rate of ordinary artillery, it is best to produce a cannon that can be fired flatly.

In addition to destroying by force, tunnels and mountains can block the advance of the enemy's armored troops. Generally speaking, the worse the road, the more delayed the enemy's armored troops will be."

To be precise, this should be considered a battlefield experience, not a response. It seems to be good on the surface, but in fact it is not feasible at all.

The war is very fast on the battlefield. Before the flat-fired artillery is produced in China, the war is probably over.

The mountains are the magical craftsmanship of nature. If it is not changed by human will, the French army will not be able to withdraw its main force to the mountain.

Digging tunnels and destroying roads seems to be the most effective response, but in fact the biggest problem is that it cannot be dug.

The French army expelled most of the people in the Rhineland region, and the rest were either traitors or traitors. The Allies could have let go of their hands and feet. If the road was destroyed, then they would go through the farmland.

Other regions are uncertain. Anyway, the armored troops can pass directly on the coast of Flanderon Plain. No matter how hard the French army tried, it would be impossible for them to dig out hundreds of kilometers of trenches in a short period of time.

Even if it is dug out, it is useless. As the armored troops are also operating together, they can send people to fill in it.

Of course, delaying time can still be done. But this is not what the French army wants, and just delaying time can't win the war.

Especially when it was established that Russia, West and Switzerland could send troops to participate in the war at any time, the French dared not delay time.

"Is there any other way? These measures alone are not enough to turn the world around."

McMahon asked with a frown. Now he only has victory in his eyes. As long as he can win this battle, everything else is easy to say.

The middle-aged officer added: "The enemy's armored forces are divided into two categories: one is the special bumps with slow speed and high defense; the other is fast, but thin skin, like putting a layer of armor on the outside of a car.

The former must be destroyed with a caliber of more than 120mm; the latter only needs a light artillery of 60mm to be destroyed."

The tank is slow, and the movement speed of heavy artillery is also slow. No one is much stronger than anyone else, so naturally the hit rate cannot be expected.

Armored vehicles seem to be easy to destroy, but they move quickly and aim very hard. Aiming is difficult, so the hit rate is of course touching.

...

A series of opinions were similar and there was no satisfactory answer. The elderly McMahon waved his hand and said, "Try it according to your own methods first and see what you will do."

If it weren't for political pressure, McMahon really wanted to withdraw his troops back to the country in one breath and fight a local defense battle.

However, this can only be considered. If this is the case, the Chinese people's spitting stars can kill him.

The French people do not allow the government to fail, especially in such a war that concerns the destiny of the country, so they cannot lose.

...

The Sino-European battlefield was still struggling to support, but the southern European battlefield was completely defeated. Affected by the favorable international situation, the Italian national independence movement entered a new climax.

Not only Vittorio Emmanuele III came out every day to call on the Italian people to resist the tyranny of France, but the royal families of several other states also came out to show their presence every now and then.

The Italian aristocrats and capitalists also sent representatives to contact the anti-French alliance to discuss Italy's future.

It can be seen that everyone has very high political sensitivity. Knowing that it was time to take the team at this time, they leaned over decisively.

Based on the principle that more allies are better, Austria will naturally not reject the surrender of these local snakes.

After a group of leaders, the French had been in Italy forever. Not only did they have to fight against the Austrian army on the front line, but they also had to deal with the endless uprisings in the rear.

If it were not for the limitations of geographical conditions that restricted the full play of the armored forces, perhaps the anti-French alliance had already been paraded in Turin.

In fact, the Austrian army was not far from the Turin military parade, and there were only a dozen kilometers left, and the French army was resisting stubbornly.

Outside the city of Turin, there was already artillery fire. Looking at the rolling wolf smoke rising from the distance, Crown Prince Frederick sighed.

Austria inherited the tradition of the German region, with a strong martial spirit, and every soldier had a battlefield plot. Frederick, who grew up in this environment, was naturally no exception.

It took a lot of effort to persuade my father and gained a chance to go to the front line. Unfortunately, no commander was brave enough to put the crown prince on the front line.

Not to mention the horse's body being wrapped in a corpse, even if it hits and hits on the battlefield, it will be a political disaster.

In this context, whether Frederick wanted or not, he became a glorious logistics officer, specializing in the maintenance of roads from Milan to Turin.

No matter how excited the front line was, Frederick could only watch from a distance, and his forbidden area was within twenty miles of the battlefield.

For this reason, Frederick protested a lot to his superiors, but there was no way. The soldiers took obedience to orders as their duty, and even as the crown prince was no exception.

Then, Frederick became the most special existence on the southern battlefield and was the number one seed player in the gilding world. His main job was to organize civil servants to repair roads and transport materials.

"Your Highness, a new batch of supplies is here, and you need to sign for it."

After saying that, the young officer took out a document and handed it over.

Frederick, who came to his senses, took the document and glanced roughly, and said slowly, "Wait a minute, I'll check it before signing."

According to the regulations of the Austrian army, the officers in charge must conduct inspections during the transfer of materials, and once they sign, they must be responsible for this.

Of course, the inspection was also carried out by a dedicated person, and it is impossible for the person in charge to do it himself. So many supplies are not something that can be done by anyone at all.

It is impossible to check all materials, and it is still possible to check them from time to time. Any problems with materials must be held accountable.

The safety of strategic materials is crucial and is directly related to the outcome of the war. Frederick's work seems inconspicuous, but in fact it is a typical example of the low-level weight.

Such personnel appointments were obviously intentional by the commanders. Others could be bought, but Frederick, who was the crown prince, could not.

Not only can you not buy it, but you must also be careful to deal with it. If something goes wrong, no matter how awesome acquaintance is, it will be useless to get here.

Since Frederick came to power, cows, snakes, ghosts and gods have retreated one after another, and the graves that are not long-lived have grown. Not only are they unlucky, but the backstage behind them is also over.

It is the war era, and the Vienna government has zero tolerance for the guys who are irresistible. The inferior ones are used as good ones - killing, the corruption of the foul-evil, and the reselling of the materials - killing...

There is no severity of the plot, and if you commit it, you will lose your head. In addition to these crimes, you will also have a crime of treason. Regardless of collusion with the French or not, these behaviors have been accused of being accepted.

After this powerful blow, those who dare to make trouble in logistics are real outlaws. The master with a big family and a big business will definitely not be willing to take risks with his head.

There are fewer problems, and Frederick rarely checks them himself, but now he is bored, so he naturally has to find something to do.
